LOLER inspection questions — Bracknell
Common questions from care home managers and maintenance leads in the Bracknell area.
Do you cover care homes in Bracknell and the surrounding area?
Yes. We cover Bracknell and nearby areas including Wokingham, Sandhurst, Crowthorne, and Camberley. Bracknell is a straightforward journey from our Reading base and we visit regularly.
What is the difference between a LOLER inspection and a service?
A LOLER thorough examination is a formal legal requirement — a competent person assesses the equipment's condition and records findings in writing. A service is a maintenance visit covering cleaning, adjustment, lubrication, and mechanical checks. Both are important; a service does not replace the LOLER examination, and vice versa.
Can you set up regular visits to our Bracknell care home?
Yes. We can build a schedule covering both your LOLER examination requirements and your routine servicing needs. Most care homes find it practical to combine the two, with visits every six months covering both obligations.
What should I watch for to know if a hoist needs attention between visits?
Watch for unusual sounds during operation, slow or jerky movements, error codes or warning lights, visible damage to the hoist or slings, and staff reports of the equipment handling differently. If any of these occur, take the equipment out of service and contact us.
Are your engineers trained for care home environments?
Yes. All engineers hold Enhanced DBS certificates and have infection control and safeguarding training. We are accustomed to working in care settings and understand the importance of working without disruption to residents.
